Haunted Ohio-Investigation

Old Man's Cave - Hocking Hills State Park - Investigation 2007

 

Here is some of the evidence we pulled from the Haunted Hocking - Old Man's Cave program 2007- Haunted Place in Ohio. There were 425 people who came to help with the investigation!

It can be easy to fall prey to the longing to find the unknown. Regardless of the number of people crowded in a room in the dark, shadows can become apparitions and bangs of boots against floors becoming ghostly pounds of fists against doors.

Many eerie things can be explained by dust in the camera lens, flashlight glares or even sounds of owls howling echoing off walls of buildings. Bugs can fly across the camera as the flash goes off, leaving an orb-like ball floating across the picture. Temperature can fluctuate quite rapidly outdoors-especially in the cooler evening hours around thick woodlands like those at Old Man's Cave- thermometers used to detect change in temperature can show high jumps simply due to a current of wind blowing cool air out of one of the recess caves!

But bugs, woods and owls aside, what we present to you is information collected during our investigations. Discover things that go bump in the night in the Hocking Hills. Some can be explained. Others cannot. Take a close look at the evidence.  Debunk it if you want. Believe it if you will. Regardless, we can tell you there are many visitors to the park who will tell you there have been unexplained occurrences that happened to them. Whether you are skeptical or not, take a moment to explore the unknown of the natural world of the Hocking Hills- a place where some folks believe that the natural and the supernatural world collide!

 

When things go bump in the night in the woods, Ohio State Park Naturalist, Pat Quackenbush explains it could be nothing more than wild animals like this tiny Screech Owl named George. It can be difficult outside to discern between the living and the . . .dead!


This year, we "layered" investigators from the area where Richard Roe lived all the way to the bridge near the bottom of the gorge. At the halfway point, we did get some activity in the crystal (swaying), the compass (spinning) and the EMF. The compass tended to spin erratically in different areas without consistency.

The dousing rods were used at the bottom of the bridge where lights had been seen and photographed during the previous investigation.

 

 

Please note: Always check with park staff to see when and where you can hunt for these ghosts. Because of the danger of many areas like the cliffs at Hocking Hills after dark, the trails close at dusk.
